Me and my expert father are having a debate.
We have a hog barn job with a 9’ deep pit, 100’ wide and 600’ long. That’s minimum as we don’t know our overbuilds yet.
We’ve done these before, but now our scrapers are push pull capable which is a change for us.
Dad says the haul to the stockpile is so short it isn’t worth doing (ie it’s faster for our 3 627G’s to be loading solo all the time instead of one at a time). I can see his argument, but the idea I was left with after working for that other major dirt outfit was that when you can, do. Is that a good rule of thumb or is that not always accurate?
Thanks.
